| Fragrant Cloud - Fragrance that fills up a room with a single rose. |
I have been working on a mansion built just for the delight of animals, roses, and special plants. I was way underbudget, more than a million dollars, when I looked at the coffee table in front of the picture window in the living room.
Dottie's crew did a lot of mowing and she also pulled the drapes aside to let the sunshine really come in. That made Jimmy startle when he came in with bright sunlight for the living room and kitchen, so he identified a place where the convertible couch/bed could go to give another family.
I wanted a quiet place where the birds and other animals would use a variety of plants and other features. Eureka, I found it! I slid the coffee table away and moved the convertible bed, hardly ever used.
I parked the recliner chair near the picture window. The birds were very happy with some bird food I had scattered outside. The birds were almost completely oblivious to my presence. I even watched a rabbit calmly leave the garden and come back later, self-assured, maybe courting.
I am 20/20 without my glasses, and that is genuine relief for my eyes. It is quiet at the window and serene. I set up some bird viewing from the kitchen window, but the clatter and water noise sets them off.
